Police in Germany say they had an easy time tracking down a thief-because he forgot something at the crime scene – his own 8-year-old son.
Police said the 29-year-old suspect ran off when the $5.65 worth of goods he was trying to steal triggered an alarm at a supermarket.
As the son was left behind, “the culprit was quickly identified.”
The suspect also managed to fall during his escape and ended the day in the hospital.
